[Royal Guard] Pairing

[Jax]

As I've already explained before, and most people seem to understand, the concept of pairing up guards is a suggestion people -might- like to 
-volunteer- to. The whole thread at the moment is just kicking around ideas to make guard rp more fun, particularly for those who want to have more interaction with other guards. People need to understand that no one is ever going to force anyone else to play something they abhor. The idea is to enhance the fun and not to spoil it.

As to the idea that role playing a few patrols with another guard for fun inhibits one playing when the other is not around, this has never prevented anyone before who have teamed up on their own. I have never seen a pair of rp 'partners' who were joined like siamese twins and I've seen a few pairings in BDI. Even the infamous non guard team of Lex Kaisa and Jinnai Halfmoor weren't joined at the hip and enjoyed play alone with many others.

My own recruit Tejene pairs up with Merin because the mun and I have fun playing together and make up our own npc adventures when nothing is going on that needs a guard but I have played her in the inn alone without any difficulty. (I seem to remember a monkey and a Magistrate stabber -eyes Scarbie and Pete-).

I would enjoy going on patrol with any other guard who wanted to, now and then, it would give Merin and Tejene things to discuss and a different perspective. Merin mun might not enjoy it (I can't speak for him) but the point is if we talk about it and know what people want to do, then it makes it easier to interact rather than everyone just going along in their own insular world.
